ECOSPHERE – $55

If your child’s fluorescent knick knacks and plastic toys are cluttering up your living room, you’re only hurting yourself by giving him another one! Instead, why not present him with this elegant ecosphere? It’s a self-sufficient ecosystem examines the delicate coexistence of animal and plant life (red shrimp, algae and microbes), but also serves as a work of modern art that will add to, not distract from, any decor.
